Waterford Crystal PRESTIGE Collection Apprentice Bowl

Vintage 1970s Heirloom Bowl This beautiful bowl *in perfect condition* comes from the Waterford Crystal Prestige Collection. It’s called the “Apprentice Bowl”, as it is the final test given to an apprentice after 5 years of training. “The year is 1974 and another Hand-Cutter is ready for the ultimate test in crystal cutting on the famous Waterford Crystal. With learned skills and cutting techniques from the previous 5 years, the hand cutter is given a Blank Bowl and proceeds to prove his experience and acquired knowledge, to make him worthy as a proud qualified craftsman of the Waterford Crystal name. The bowl measures 8 inches in diameter/approx 4 inches high and consists of all the intricate cuts known to be that of the beautiful Waterford Crystal. The apprenticeship bowl is first marked with a permanent marker that acts as a guide to where the main pattern of cuts will begin and so the work starts.”
